Haven't posted in a while. Since my last post I have replaced the lights in my headlights. Also wet sanded and buffed the headlights. Replaced my brakes all around with new pads and rear rotors. Switched to synthetic oil finally. Also cleaned my air filter. Buffed the front and rear windshields.

Vacuumed, washed and hand waxed her real nice yesterday. Put air in the tires. Next I am going to do a 2 degree timing advance probably this week. Will also buy a new pop charger intake filter this weekend. Then after that I will probably replace my spark plugs. She's only at 66,XXX miles but I just want to do it for shytes and giggles. From there on I am going to be focusing more on cosmetics. i.e. new cowl, powdercoat wiper blades, new exterior moldings, rear bumper respray.

Here's some pics:

Wow man looks great! Can't wait to run the same setup. Did you install any rear camber arms/toe bolts/etc.?

Not yet, I bought toe bolts because I found some cheap (thanks bmurray) but I want to get my alignment checked first to see how off it is. My tires need replaced too so I'm not worried about driving on them for a few more days.

Not sure yet, been looking for a good setup to kind of copy from but everything is subjective. I may just go factory spec for now.

Yeah I've heard/read alot about proper camber but you're right it all depends.

Quick pic before walking into work this morning after a quick detail last night

Haha the main thing keeping me from going lower is maintaining suspension geometry. Function > Form.

Going that route I'd say its not worth it. Especially with a DE engine. If it's done right and if someone else installs, using all the right complimentary parts it will run $15k. And the DEs safe point it 420whp supposively. You're better off going domestic and having all the power you want through easier means and moneys.
